So I came across a guidebook, on how to keep control of the flock. You can't have them sheep wanderin', you know.
Anyway, here's a tip for y'all who wanna make sure that they don't get outta line...

The formula for Spiritual Character Assassination
And congregational control
– By Roscoe D. Levygne

In leadership, control is key. The Sheep must be led, and it is the responsibility of the shepherd to show them the error of their ways, while lovingly correcting them. The rod corrects, while the staff guides.(Psalm 23) There comes a time though, where one sheep has to be made an example of, in order to keep the others in line. Inevitably, you will be challenged. When this happens, the following strategy should be deployed in order to have the victory and remain in control.

1) Isolate: Have the discussion in a forum where the other party cannot defend themselves or challenge you. This works best when the other person(s):
a. is not present
b. is unable to respond
c. has spoken first in the forum

2) Pontificate: Use your leverage: Use your leadership position, either in a direct or implied fashion. Your position always adds weight to your words and position.

3) Obfuscate: Use scripture to bolster your position. Well placed scriptural reference always cements your argument, and is the best way to divert attention from a weak argument.

4) Alienate: The person has now become different, by virtue of their disagreement with you. He/she/they is now no longer as we are. Say this mournfully, somberly. Tears are great for this step.

5) Denigrate: Imply that the other person has satanic involvement. This automatically assures that your listeners associate your position with God.

6) Amputate: If thine eye offend thee, pluck it out – Mark 9:47a. The offending party must be treated as a cancer, and removed, at least publicly. It must be announced quickly. Unequivocally.

7) Eradicate: Dismiss opposition as uninformed. This must be done swiftly, and benevolently.

8) Elevate: Raise yourself above the other person(s) Make sure to say, after explaining your position, that you still love the other person(s). Imply that if there is repentance, there is a chance of restoration.

9) Invocate: Request prayer for the other person(s). Entreat those in attendance to earnestly seek God on behalf of the fallen one(s).

10) Placate: Close in prayer, naming others who you think may disagree with or question you. Positive or negative mention still work, though positive makes you appear even more godly, and mature in your ability to stand above.

11) Sedate: If and when possible, bolster your position with music or a timely prophecy. This works EXTREMELY well, and lessens the possibility of dissent. A song about sin works best, sung in a mournful tone. A prophecy that includes wheat and tare is most effective. Conviction leads to introspection, which takes the mind (and focus) off of you.

Examining the tithe

Blessings to you dear reader. Thank you for taking the time to read the following. It is my prayer that it will edify, and bring clarity, and provoke thought and a closer walk with our Savior. Please note that wherever scripture is quoted, it is taken from the American Standard Version (ASV) In His service, Pastor.ctj One of the most heavily debated doctrines of the modern church is the doctrine of the tithe. Many Christians generally accept that the law of tithing, as other Jewish laws, was abolished upon Jesus' crucifixion, when he fulfilled the Old Testament law. For the most part, Christians do not follow Jewish community laws such as the extensive dietary restrictions in the Old Testament, for example, and tithing was part of that group of laws. Others believe that because Jesus spoke about tithing, he was instructing his followers to continue the practice, and for many, not only is the tithe still an active doctrine, it is proof of one’s commitment to God. The doct

Thabiti or T.D. what do 'we' folk prefer?

Blessings all Recently, on my Facebook page, I posted a piece by Pastor Thabiti Anyabwile which concerned the appearance of TD Jakes in ‘ The Elephant Room ’ conversations. ( Read the piece here )  I must also admit to a certain amount of disappointment that to date, only ONE of my many black Christian FB friends have commented on it. Why is that, fam?  It is my prayer that when I post a thing, dialog will ensue, and the Biblical prescription for successful exchange between brethren will take place, ie: God is glorified, and the brethren are edified . It is never my intention to cause division among brethren. I want to be clear on that. One of the biggest problems, as I see this is that for many ‘Black Christians’ TD Jakes is a model to be emulated  ( Let me be clear that I   HATE the idea that the body of Christ which Jesus declares is ONE, should be divided/categorized along ethnic lines, so I do not like the idea of a ‘black church’, or ‘chinese church’ or white church’)
